Well I'm currently about a year into my transition into natural hair and I am going natural because I want to embrace my texture...it's not so much about the chemicals. That being said-I normally wear my hair in braid outs, twist outs or wet buns. I work in a corporate environment and heard rumbings that the executive vp of my department no longer cared for my hair. erplexed
So after getting advice, etc. etc. I decided to wear it straight more often. I am NOT happy about this decision at all....especially knowing that it could potentially ruin my natural curl pattern. My hair is pretty healthy-I co-wash, deep condition, pre-poo, etc. I've gotten it straightened by regular blowdry/flat iron and I've done the dominican blow dry (with the brush) /flat iron as well.So is it true? Does apply heat to get it straight ruin your curl pattern? Any suggestions on wearing it straight??
